Oh cmon, secede, it's kinda jovial parental poke.... Most of these things here aren't meant personally. I don't know how to difuse this, since I poked too, but don't take it to heart.
Why? You chose to plaster your personal preferences all over the internet, without regard for who might be looking. I mean, who, in 2011, still uses the same username everywhere he goes?
I could be working for the CIA, for all you know, looking for pan-Germanistic 2nd-Amendment-obsessive shite-music-enjoying Texan separatists...

I'm gonna take it personal if all BigBrother's Breakfast can do with his time if attempt to trace my every move.

What do you gain from all this? I've tried to more than sensible with all your hateful comments.
But also, picture this: you're a member of a forum of people who live in Switzerland. It's a mutually supportive community, in which people look out for each other, meet each other socially, help each other when they're having problems, and generally provide a kind of cushion against the (sometimes) harsh realities of being a foreigner in Switzerland.
One day, some random "American" with a slightly neo-Nazi username pops up, starts provocative threads about political issues, makes ridiculous presumptions about the membership of the board, claims he wants to make an impact on Swiss politics and generally causes quite a stir with his arrival.
Wouldn't you be a little curious about this strange newcomer? Wouldn't you want to look him up to see what else he'd been up to on the internets?
We don't know you, we don't trust you, and you come across as a bit peculiar. Of course we have done a bit of research into the "Schweizerblut" username. We'd have been idiots not to (and don't think I'm the only person to have been looking you up, either ).

If you think I'm hateful, you won't last five minutes amongst the Swiss...

Well it's not entertaining to the victim.
It makes me sad that you enjoy ruining a person's experience with a new forum for the sake of "light entertainment".

Good luck in the CIA.
"Ruining a person's experience" - c'mon, really? If so I would not give you twenty minutes in the Muotathal A little less drama, please, if you expect to be taken at all seriously around here.
Seriously, I don't think Dougal's Breakfast was unreasonable in googling your username. I did the same thing myself (once it looked like you weren't going to take the hint and post an introduction.) Lots of people do use the same username for everything, but usually it is intentional - they are trying to promote their 'brand', drive traffic to their blog with the same name, etc. So yeah, I googled you. Found the youtube channel, found the football/Hopp Schwiiz stuff, found the Nazi-ish forum (that really disturbed me a little, was hoping it was just coincidence, somebody else with the same username ) and found loads of wikipedia-knockoff articles about Basler red wine too.
If you don't want your various dots to be connected by anyone with a working googlemachine, you should consider using different handles on different forums. But you are the one who started this thread in the first place - effectively putting us all on notice that "I am 'schweizerblut' and I like trance music" - so I really don't get why you feel that having your Youtube channel 'outed' in response to that is such a big deal.
